3 Brake Foundation Components problem of the 1999 Suzuki Grand Vitara

Failure Date: 08/25/2000

I first reported this problem last year. Something was causing intermittent severe vibration at highway speeds. I was traveling down the highway going 60mph at approx. 12:30am when this occured again and I attempted to pull over to the side of the highway when my foot was dislodged from the brake by vibration. The force being applied to the brake was transfered to the accelerator which resulted in a loss of control of the vehicle. I slammed into a solid rock ledge and received injuries to my back and neck. Both of the air bags failed to deploy, the officers on the scene commented that they should have. This vehicle has been to the dealer three times for the vibration problem with no results. Their answer has been to balance the tires over and over, although they did supposedly replace the body bushings. Still no results. Now I have a wrecked vehicle and a messed up back to show for my $20,000 dollar investment.
